Media Advisory-Celebrating America's Glory, The Anthem - April 30, 2008
LAS VEGAS, NV—Bilingual and bicultural singing sensation Veronica Lopez, known as “Chaparita” in her hometown of Las Vegas, is celebrating the re-release of her widely acclaimed, “La Gloria de America” newly titled “America’s Glory, The Anthem”. Backed by a 20 plus piece orchestra, Lopez performs an impressive rendition of her heartfelt ballad in a manner befitting the song which has come to be known as the ‘Immigrant’s Anthem.’ Written as a tribute to her father, Lopez pays homage to immigrants of all nationalities who come to America, struggle but maintain hope and determination, and ultimately pave the way for their children and grandchildren to pursue their dreams. She has performed this ballad for national audiences at government events and rallies, most recently in Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles.
“America’s Glory, The Anthem” was arranged and co-produced by Lopez, along with famed composer, musician, singer and arranger Sergio Alberti. At a young age, Alberti, a highly skilled trumpet player and pianist, moved from Mexicali to Mexico City to arrange musical scores for a 45-piece orchestra, gaining him fame as one of the youngest and most talented arrangers in Mexico. He later accepted the position as showroom conductor at the elegant Princess Hotel in Acapulco, and continued to produce jingles for television and radio commercials until his move to the United States. In the past decade, as musical director for Las Vegas headliners, Alberti was encouraged to showcase his own talents as concert pianist, trumpet player and extraordinary vocalist.
The accompanying music video, co-produced by Lopez and Mexican-American talent, Art Zapata, takes the viewer on a visual journey that will touch hearts and bring a new level of interest to “America’s Glory, The Anthem”. Zapata, a screenwriter, director and movie producer. Together with Emre Korkmaz, Zapata has maintained involvement in diverse projects in the film industry.
The re-release of “America’s Glory, The Anthem” coincides with Lopez’s performance at the first Las Vegas Latin Music Awards on Sunday, June 1, 2008. Nominated in four categories, this petite Latina singer with the colossal voice will perform a medley of her original Latin tunes, concluding with this featured song. Long considered a crossover singer and songwriter in both markets, Lopez has been nominated for the four Awards: “Best Regional Mexican Performer-Female”; “Latin Music’s Rising Star”; “Best Latin Pop Music Performer”; and “Best Recorded CD”. Lopez’s extensive range, style and passion for her craft have been compared to that of popular vocalist Edie Gorme and the late Tejano singing sensation, Selena. Lopez has released two CDs, “Corazon de Oro,” comprised of traditional Spanish music; and “Chisme” (translated “Gossip”), a more diverse mix of Mexican Cumbias, Nortena, Rancheras, Banda, Baladas, and Mariachi, both of which have received significant recognition.
